I had a revelation the other day while thinking about why Jesus spoke in parables. It’s because the message isn’t for everyone and it’s not for those that don’t believe. 

As I pondered the media and the circulating information, I wondered how anyone could know what is the truth and what is a lie. I have made my stance on what I believe but every once and a while I question things. I try and put myself in the shoes of those with opposing viewpoints and find myself in need of reassurance and direction going forward. I always search the scriptures and although that can be a tricky thing to understand also, with prayer this is what I came to this morning.

-my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.- Hosea 4:6

But for those that want to learn and have knowledge and wisdom Jesus said this:

-Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you-  Matthew 7:7
